Next Up: vs Broncos

Lamar will be starting, thank the gods.

This is concerning though...... "Jackson has taken 102 hits this season, which trails only Daniel Jones (109). Harbaugh indicated that he "absolutely" would think about giving Jackson more days off from practice in the future."

With this defense(or a lack of), every game is going to be an adventure. Unlike last year, I don't see any blow-out victories on the horizon and this week will be no different. Whoever wins the turnover battle and commits the least amount of costly penalties will come out victorious. After Sunday's fiasco, there's no guaranteed wins in 2024. All you hope for is the Ravens play a clean game and get their 6th win.

Harbaugh says Marcus Williams will play on Sunday and wouldn't confirm if Mitchell would return this week or not. I'm thinking Mitchell returns for the Bengals game, if not be held out until the Pittsburgh game.

I'd be surprised if he isn't up for the Bengals game at a minimum with him being back to full practices this week. Think he'd probably be back for this game if it wasn't for a Thursday night game following. Feel like that's a 50/50 decision.

This is a 'righting a wrong' game to me. The Ravens as a UNIT will right the wrong of that freaking debacle against Jameis and the CLOWNS by dominating the Broncos at the Bank to advance to 6-3.

GO RAVENS!

If I'm not wrong, with 101 yards we move to 42 straight games with over 100 yards.

The record is 43 set by thr 2021 ravens vs Denver and the Steelers in the 70s. Cicny week to tie the record, and funny enough Pittsburgh to attempt to break it

If the defense does it again this week, it's got to be time for a new DC.

Orr's doing the worst coaching job in the NFL and it's not close. Looking at our defensive roster pre-season, there didn't seem to be any glaring weakness, a couple of questions about Simpson and Eddie Jackson, but overall a strong set of players. Yet he's getting nothing out of them. He's not even taking out players who are underperforming and trying others in their spots.

Mid season co-ordinator changes are part of the Super Bowl formula anyway.

Is there anyone worthwhile on that back up QB market in case Lamar has future issues? Or are we just surrendering the season if Lamar goes down

I tend to think back up QBs are a bit pointless if you've got a top QB and Super Bowl ambitions. (Especially this season, when we'd need Mahomes or Allen at QB2 to win with this defense.)

If Lamar's out for the year, lose and maximize your draft pick for next year to go again. If it's a short term injury, I'd rotate all the starters possible, throw those games away and give everyone an extra by-week, ready to come back and qualify for the playoffs when Lamar returns.

Good back up QBs are useful when you've got a rookie, or if the HC/GM are in trouble and need every win possible to keep their jobs.

I agree but Lamar’s hits are adding up. Having a decent back up can make the difference between playoffs or not if he misses a few game. Unfortunately I think its irrelevant since there are no options out there unless we trade

Before the season began, I actually thought signing Flacco would have been a great move by the Ravens. If Lamar went down for the season, at least you would still have a fighter's chance of making the playoffs. As it stands right now, yes, without admitting as much, they surrender the season. Josh Johnson is not going to lead anyone to the promised land.

I think asking Flacco to operate in this offense is a pipe dream. There’s a reason they’re sticking with guys like Josh Johnson at this stage. There needs to be some level of prerequisite athleticism.
